Q

May I ask what is Luke’s nationality? Or if he is a Jew, a gentile or a mixture of both?


Will My Disease Keep Me Out Of Heaven?

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

I have Epilepsy and in Matthew 4:24, 17:15 it makes epilepsy/seizures sound as if I have demons within me, and or have a very weak faith. I’m a person that studies the Bible and try my best to become more like Jesus daily. All I want to know is since I believe in Jesus and try real hard to follow him I will still be accepted into Heaven won’t I? I really don’t see why I wouldn’t, but when reading a article these questions arose so I decided to ask you.


John 11 And The Rapture

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

My Bible has a footnote on John 11:26, about which I have a question. The footnote claims that the phrase ‘shall never die’ refers to the second death of Revelation 2:11 and 20: 6. But to me the phrase suggests the rapture. Your opinion, please.


Are There Saints Who Aren’t In The Church?

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

I have always thought the anti-Christ’s war against the saints in Daniel’s 70th Week would concern gentiles that come to know Christ after the rapture. But could that scripture also apply to Jews that come to know Christ after the rapture? Will Jews also be called ‘saints’ if they accept Christ after the rapture or is this a term reserved for Gentile believers? Or reserved for the church only? If it’s reserved for the church only that means a pre-trib rapture is not possible as the A/C will be battling the church ‘saints’.


The Supernatural War Of The End times

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

Thanks to your Q&A section, many things have been made much clearer to me, especially the prophecies of the End Times. One wonders, will the atheistic political Powers-That-Be ever recognize that they are battling against Almighty God Himself, not against secular, temporal enemies?


Persecution Before The Rapture

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

Persecution of Christians seems to be happening more and more. Do you think we will experience persecution (bodily harm) and death in America as is true in China, India, Iran, and various places in the middle East before the Rapture? A number of prophecy people think we should prepare for serious suffering and even death by beheading. Would you please tell us your thoughts about persecution?


The Rapture And The Tribulation

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

Thank you very much for your site, I’ve learned a lot and my day is not complete when I miss reading it. My question is, as I heard and read that the last 7 years are called the tribulation, do we begin to count 7 years just after the rapture or is there any time interval before beginning to count the 7 years?


The People of The Branch?

Published: January 3, 2015
Q

Someone recently mentioned the Netzari, and I had never heard of them. I went to their website and they say that they alone are the Holy Remnant. They say Faith is the action of fulfilling Torah, by opening our hearts to the Word of YHWH and doing His Commandments, we turn from the lower nature of man and become a Kedoshim (Holy People). Faith is believing that Jesus came and died for our sins is it not? Is this Holy Remnant only the ones who fulfill the entire Torah? Will we, if we love Yeshua with all our heart be desiring to fulfill (obey) the entire Law?


Why Does Satan Continue To Persecute The Jews?

Published: January 2, 2015
Q

I have a question re:Hosea 5:15. I’ve wondered why Satan continued to persecute the Jews after the cross. Before that I could see his efforts at Jewish destruction as an attempt to corrupt or break the bloodline required for Jesus’ lineage. But after that, why continue pursuing the elimination of Jews?


What Will We Do For 7 Years?

Published: January 1, 2015
Q

I was a wishy-washy Christian for most of my life.Then about a year ago my wife, who has never been baptized, said she wanted to. I said I would be baptized with her. Well I did, and when I came out of the baptismal I had a new love for Jesus that I never had before. It was wonderful. She and I have Bible study for about 2 hours every night and your studies have been a large part of our nightly worship. Jack, thank you so much. You have really blessed our lives. My question is, after the rapture and the marriage supper of the lamb, what will we be doing during the 7 years of the tribulation on earth?
